I can understand that. There's no fun to a (heavily) unbalanced game. Yet I couldn't predict that it was going to be this imbalanced. Quite a bit of testing has been done before the game was released the way it is but only by a limited few.

Either way, I've already got a mail from doublejk with some great suggestions on rebalancing. With your main added to that I'm sure that it's quite rebalancable.

Well I would since I'm working on it wink . Sorry that I've had to put it offline for now. The main reason for it is that there are several things that have to be changed.

I've already adjusted the majority of them but there is atleast one more thing I want to adjust to make the game more fun and improve the replayability of the game.

I won't be able to finish it today though, but if all works out nicely as I've got it planned at the moment it'll be back up on Wednesday. Tomorrow and Tuesday I won't be able to work on it because I'm not at home on those days.

The main reason that I put the game offline during this time is that the score you could gain with this version would need to be erased the moment the new version comes online because of drastic changes in the gameplay. Apart from that this also has the effect that the savegames will need to be reset as well. So it would be to make sure that this will not end up with people spending a lot of time building up savegames that will be gone the moment the new version gets online.

Update: I won't be able to finish it today. I've worked on it all day and I'm making good progress, yet I won't be able to finish it. I expect the game to be back online either Saturday evening or Sunday.

Oh well! Good things take long times before they happen.

Aye. I've been adjusting a lot of things, that's why its been taking some time. The game has gained quite a bit more depth in gameplay with new update. Once it's back online I'll provide you guys with a list so you can get an overview of all changes that have been made.

I was disappointed when I saw that it was offline because I've only played it once and have never tried its competition mode so I'm very eager to play it again.

Same here, and I don't really mind that much if I even have to wait another week before I can play it again, because it will hopefully mean that any imbalances will have been ironed out for the update. All in all, this could be a weekend to cherish.

Did a bit of re-balancing again, should have become a bit harder to make sure that you don't go completely passive for ages in lvl 4 until you finally run out of resources.

Still working on a good idea to solve that in such a way that it's still possible to keep on improving. Suggestions are welcome.
